Sankyo definitions? 6&12? 7&15?

[Bigdog]

What do these terms mean? I have a modern-classic Sankyo...in the upper right corner it is labeled 6 & 12...I've noticed other variations...i..e 7 & 15, 6 & 13, etc.

Please enlighten me as to what these mean...

Mucho thankyo for help with my Sankyo.

I'm pretty sure this means the number of balls the machine pays out. Some pockets will be 6 balls and when in fever each though the trap door will score you 12.

right, the first number is your regular payout, the second number is the payout for balls going thru the trapdoor on fevers.

and if it says something like 3,4&13 then most pockets will pay 3 the winged pocket under the start pocket will pay 4 and the fever pocket will pay 13

the way I understand it: Through the years the laws regulating "pachinko" parlors have changed. Some of these changes deal with the payouts on the machines, which is why there is a variety of payouts.

Maybe that's why I have so many machines, I always thought that 7 & 15 meant I had to have 7 on display and 15 in the garage for just in case...
